Examples

The following code example creates a NamedRange and then populates all the cells with the text Delete. To test the events, right-click one of the cells to make a border appear around the range, and then double-click one of the cells to clear the range.

This version is for a document-level customization.

Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange clickRange;
private void ClickToChangeRange()
{
    clickRange = this.Controls.AddNamedRange(
        this.Range["B2", "D4"], "clickRange");
    clickRange.Value2 = "Delete";
    clickRange.BeforeDoubleClick += new 
        Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.
        DocEvents_BeforeDoubleClickEventHandler(
        clickRange_BeforeDoubleClick);
    clickRange.BeforeRightClick += new 
        Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.
        DocEvents_BeforeRightClickEventHandler(
        clickRange_BeforeRightClick);
}

void clickRange_BeforeRightClick(
    Excel.Range Target, ref bool Cancel)
{
    clickRange.BorderAround(missing, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick,
        Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic);
    Cancel = true;
}

void clickRange_BeforeDoubleClick(
    Excel.Range Target, ref bool Cancel)
{
    clickRange.Clear();
    Cancel = true;
}
Private clickRange As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.NamedRange

Private Sub ClickToChangeRange()
    clickRange = Me.Controls.AddNamedRange(Me.Range("B2", "D4"), _
        "clickRange")
    clickRange.Value2 = "Delete"
    AddHandler clickRange.BeforeDoubleClick, _
        AddressOf clickRange_BeforeDoubleClick
    AddHandler clickRange.BeforeRightClick, _
        AddressOf clickRange_BeforeRightClick
End Sub


Sub clickRange_BeforeRightClick(ByVal Target As Excel.Range, _
    ByRef Cancel As Boolean)
    clickRange.BorderAround(, Excel.XlBorderWeight.xlThick, _
        Excel.XlColorIndex.xlColorIndexAutomatic, )
    Cancel = True
End Sub


Sub clickRange_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As _
    Excel.Range, ByRef Cancel As Boolean)
    clickRange.Clear()
    Cancel = True
End Sub

This version is for an application-level add-in.

Remarks

Right-clicking overlapping NamedRange controls raises the event on each of the controls that overlap.
